NOTE: Hello all once again and thanks for taking time out of your day to check out my fic! Just giving a fair warning that there's some preeeettty strong sexual themes in this chapter and the next few chapters are going to get worse and worse. I decided not to do any changes to this in comparison to my AO3 version, I'll try not to give spoilers but it's not as 'Extreme' yet. I'm kinda testing the waters to see how far I can push the envelope, but I can confirm that any sexual themes on going from this chapter WILL be edited. Enjoy!

RRRRIIIINNNGGGGG!

"All right, that's all for today class. See you all tomorrow, bright and early!"

The classroom filled with chatter as everyone was relieved this school day was finally over. I looked out the window as the skies were filled with grey clouds overhead, it looked like a storm was coming.

"Kohikana?"

I snapped out of it looking at my confused teacher at the front of the class.

"Are you not leaving?"

My cheeks flushed red not even noticing the classroom had emptied out as I hurriedly stuffed my textbooks and binders into my backpack saying with a cheerful, "See you tomorrow!" before I left my classroom.

The hallways went silent the further more I had walked into it, as hushed whispers were now surrounding me from lunch time's earlier events. I bowed my head down peering up ever so slightly to see where I was going. My anxiety had worsened the closer and closer I had gotten towards my locker, burying my head even deeper into my chest seeing the legs of my friends all huddled together.

"Just give her, her space. She'll come around." I heard Ikki whisper.

"But—"

Mine's words came to a halt as they had noticed me trying my best to sneakily open my locker. I gave myself an extra ten seconds before shutting my locker closed, being put into view of everyone once again. I jumped back not expecting Leo to be casually standing there with his elbow perched up on the locker, holding his head.

"Ready to go home?" He asked with a smile.

I nervously shifted my view at my friends, practically seeing their faces read, 'NO! DON'T DO IT!'.

"Well?" Leo pushed on.

I nodded in agreement, and we left the tense scene.

"I'm sorry you had to witness that horrible girl's behavior. I promise you, I will never let that happen again."

The winds were picking up and the temperature was dropping, feeling a shiver of bitter coldness go down my spine.

"Don't you think …. You were a little harsh?" I wondered.

"After the way she acted and after saying those means things about you, she had it coming." Leo reassured me.

My heart jumped as a crack of booming thunder was heard above us, unexpectedly hopping myself closer to Leo. He gave out a light laugh throwing his arm over my shoulders, squeezing me in tightly.

"I'm here. I won't let anything happen to you."

His body heat was warming me up and I couldn't explain it, but I believed him.

I really did feel safe under his arms. I let out a heavy breath tilting my head comfortably on his chest as we continued walking. It felt so safe, it felt so … Right. I feel like I could walk like this with him forever, I just didn't want it to end. Leo really must have a soft side to him, maybe we just judged him too quickly. Why were my friends so on edge about him? I really feel like I could trust Leo with all my heart.

"Huh?" I wondered aloud.

Leo swiftly took off his navy coloured school blazer holding it above my head as a sudden rush of rain came pouring down on us. "Let's run! Hurry!"He announced.

The two of us were panting as we shared a giggle from this abrupt situation the rain had put us in. We were now standing under cover of my apartment's entrance awning, soaking in how peaceful this rain was around us.

"Oh … Your jacket is all wet. I'm so sorry, I'll pay for the dry cleaning myself."

I felt my face blush as I looked up at Leo, seeing his toned chest through his rain soaked white dress shirt. I instantly looked away feeling like some kind of pervert that had uninvitingly checked him out. It was so sweet of him to put me before himself … He really was telling the truth. He really wouldn't let anything happen to me.

I felt his hand under my chin, directing my gaze into his blue eyes. "You are the sweetest thing, you know that?" He teased under his breath.

The pitter patter of the rain seemed to be drowning out as I found myself getting lost in his eyes. My heart wildly thumping in my chest as he brought his face closer to mine and our lips met. His kiss this time was gentle and warm. It felt caring and genuine. His hand moved away from my chin bringing it around to the back of my head, lightly placing a full palm bringing our faces even closer. I wrapped my arms around his torso, never wanting this romantic kiss to end. I couldn't believe I was kissing him, Leo, out of all people. But I wanted him. I wanted him here with me, I wanted him to protect me, to cherish me, to make me his.

He slowly pulled away seeing the gentleness in his eyes as he placed his forehead onto mine panting downwards, "Wow." I giggled cupping his cheeks as we shared a laugh together.

He made me forget all about Kent.

We made our way upstairs as he watched me unlock my door. I give him a final smile, burning the image of his whole self into my mind, I never wanted to forget this moment. I think I could be falling for him. I instantly noticed he was still dripping wet from the rain, "Do you want to come inside and dry yourself?" I couldn't pinpoint why he had looked so happy about my offer as he followed me inside.

My apartment was pitch black from the gloomy weather as I switched on the lights.

"Make yourself comfortable, I'll get you a towel." I chirped.

I made my way into my bedroom, putting down my backpack and purse, and it hit me. I felt a solid wack on my head, crashing myself on the cold wooden floor. Panicked, I looked up in a daze seeing Leo standing over me.

"Oh Kohikana …" He hissed, "How truly stupid you are."

I planted my hand on the painfully pounding part of my head, cowering away from him. I felt hysteric as I had backed up into my bed frame, watching him inch closer. The lightening from outside filling my pitch black bedroom with light, making Leo look even more menacing.

"L-L-Leo … What are you doing?" I whimpered.

He stood over me and started to laugh hysterically. He bent down grabbing onto both my wrists lifting me up, throwing me onto my bed. My chest welled up and I felt tears oozing down, I was afraid. Afraid for my own life. I snapped back up in attempt to make my escape as I was forcefully pushed back down, now with his full weight on my body, holding my wrists in a single handed death grip.

"STOP! P-P-PLEASE STOP!" I begged.

His free hand pointed an index finger as he slowly started to roam it around teasingly on my right shoulder. Suddenly feeling exposed in my school uniform, quickly shutting my legs together tightly.

"Do you know how long it took me to find you Kohikana?" His eyes following the path of his finger. "Four months to be exact. Four long months. And here you are, right in front of me. Looking absolutely pathetic."

"Wh – Why are you doing this?" My crying was now breaking my speech.

His movements froze as I felt his penetrating stare, thunder filled the room once again and his eyes flashed red, "Because I'm going to drag you into hell with me." I shut my eyes tightly, hearing the sound of horse carriages all over again in the distance, rushing towards their destination. Those demonic looking red eyes lull fully watching me lose consciousness.

My breathing uneven, "It – It - It was you!"

Everything I was seeing, they weren't an act of coincidence … They were memories! I struggled to wiggle out as his free hand tugged down on my blouse, exposing my right shoulder. He started planting soft kisses, working his way up to my neck.

"S – St – Stop." I stammered.

My plea ignored as he ran his tongue teasingly on my tender neck, instantly sealing my own lips to prevent a moan from coming out. I felt his warm mouth cup over my neck as he started to suck with all his might. I couldn't help but cry at the sharp pain, as he finally released, admiring his own work. "I'm going to mark this body. All of it … Is mine." Going at it again on my shoulder, digging my top teeth into my bottom lip it made me believe I may have pierced my own flesh.

"Heh, is this not good for you? Well how about this?"

He took his one leg and forcefully split my legs wide open, ramming his knee on the outer part of my vagina, circling it around. He pulled back a bit as I looked at him in horror, seeing him read my face. "You're a hard one to please, aren't you?" He snarled seeing his brows furrow deeper, his red eyes radiating brightly in the pitch black darkness.

Leo moved his face towards my breasts, licking through the fabric as his teeth gently tugged at my erect nipple. I moaned out loud, hating myself for making such a disgusting sound. How could I do this? How could HE do this? Our earlier kiss replayed in my mind telling myself how much of a fool I was to think Leo could play such an innocent act.

"I'm going to break you, Kohikana." He looked down at me, his white hair shadowing his malicious grin, "Your scared face … I can't get enough of it. Your body is so hot underneath me, stop making it sound like you're not enjoying this."

His kiss was so forceful making our teeth gnash together, his knee movements speeding up on my sensitive area, I could feel my body giving way. I have never felt pleasure like this and I couldn't believe this is how I would be experiencing it for the first time. What did he want with me?! Is this all he wanted? To forcefully use me for his sick desires? I've … Never had sex before, and I sure as hell don't want to do it for the first time with amonster like this.

His free hand grabbed onto one of my wrists, pushing my hand into my white cotton panties. "Show me how much you want me." He purred. Leo controlled the movements of my wrists, dragging my arm back out as I saw the wetness shine on my fingers in the pale moonlight. He looked pleased at the result and I watched him in dread, taking his time finger by finger to suck the wetness clean.

THIS IS MY CHANCE!

I yanked my hand out of his mouth, connecting the hardest left hook I possibly could onto his jaw. He stammered back, crashing his back onto my closest doors. I immediately jumped up from my bed, making a run for it. I felt the hairs nearly rip from out of my scalp as Leo had a handful of my orange hair in his hand, dragging me back towards him, "I'M NOT DONE WITH YOU YET KOHIKANA!" I clenched my left hand, flat palming my right hand over it delivering an elbow blow into Leo's abdomen. His grip released as he faltered backwards. I felt the adrenaline rushing into my legs, desperately wanting to save my own life.

I ran, and I didn't look back. Don't look back.

I propelled myself out the apartment entrance, running for my life in the cold heavy rain. I nearly tripped over my own feet as I heard a bellow from one of the apartment windows, "YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM ME KOHIKANA! YOU CAN'T HIDE!" finished off with a disturbing laugh.

RUN. RUN UNTIL YOUR LEGS FALL OFF.

I could barely keep my eyes open, sobbing in the rain, feeling my crystal rose necklace bouncing up and down on my neck. I clutched it tightly in my right hand tearfully crying out, "Help me, someone help me! Anyone!"

I didn't know where to go, BUT I HAD TO RUN.

RUN.
